Whatever format your picture is in, drop it below and download it as a PNG. JPG, WebP, AVIF, HEIC, GIF and BMP are all accepted, several files at a time, and nothing leaves your device.
The most common one is a destination that refuses everything else: a form, a print service, a design tool or a piece of older software that lists PNG and JPG only. Converting a WebP or HEIC you cannot open elsewhere solves the problem in one step.
The second is editing. If you will crop, annotate and re-save an image several times, doing it in PNG means each save is exact. In JPG every save compresses again and the damage accumulates.
It does not remove a background. A photo of a product on a white table becomes a PNG of a product on a white table. To get a transparent background, use the background remover first, then export as PNG.
It does not make a file web-friendly either. For a website, a photo in PNG is usually the heaviest option available. Use PNG for logos, icons and screenshots, and JPG, WebP or AVIF for photographs.
JPG/JPEG, WebP, AVIF, HEIC from iPhones, GIF and BMP. You can mix formats in the same batch; each file is converted separately and keeps its name.
No. PNG is lossless from the moment of conversion, so nothing more is lost, but detail already removed by JPG or WebP compression does not come back.
PNG stores every pixel exactly, which is expensive for photographs. A 500 KB JPG photo can become a 4 MB PNG. This is normal; if size matters more than exactness, PNG is the wrong target for photos.
Only if the source had one. Converting a WebP or AVIF with transparency keeps it. Converting a JPG does not create transparency, because a JPG has no transparent pixels to keep.
